- 10K Gold lip plate
- 14K Gold riser
- 10K Gold crown
- (.013") tubing
- Handmade in USA
Nagahara currently offers six headjoint styles:
Diligente (D) - Most resistant cut with tallest riser wall height; produces a dark and centered core tone. Great response in lower register notes; requires more air support for long or pianissimo phrases.
Ardore (A) - Bright, open sound & free-blowing feel. Embodies the American Flute sound with much vibrancy and strength in the sound; widest cut we offer with the lowest riser wall height.
Spianato (S) - Traditional, more conservative cut for smaller ensemble playing. A bit more oval in shape; made to portray a soft and sweet sounding voice.
DA - A cross between the “Diligente” and “Ardore” cut. Even flexibility & resistance throughout all registers. The most popular cut selection among flutists of all levels offering a great mixture and balance of warmth, vibrancy, color change, and clear articulation.
DS - A cross between the “Diligente” and “Spianato” cut. Medium resistance with a more delicate and sweet sound. Great for chamber ensemble playing.
Galway (G) - Made with a unique lip plate design that enhances projection power and embodies the vibrant sound Sir James Galway is known & praised for. Provides flexibility & clean articulation with ease through all registers.
The “Nagahara Extended Riser” has a front protrusion or “lip” which extends up into the plane of the lip plate, leaving no solder line at the blowing edge. Since both surfaces where the sound is produced are of the same material, the sound is enhanced. The effect can be compared to having an entire lip plate of equal material. For example, a silver headjoint with an 18K gold Extended-Lip riser has a similar sound to that of a silver headjoint with an 18K gold lipplate and riser.
